dhcp & kernel: Unknown InputIN=eth0 ...

With the help of Alexandre and others I have gotten one system almost
working, except for dhcp.  The system runs firestarter which provides
the firewall on eth1 and dhcp on eth0 for my home network.  I have the
following kernel errors:

The dhcp.leases~ has the following properties:
-rw-r--r--  root root system_u:object_r:dhcpc_state_t 
 /var/lib/dhcp/dhcpd.leases~

eth0 seems to be running and configured fine but the kernel is not
recognizing the Input from it?  ifconfig of eth0 is:

eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:E0:4C:20:EB:C3
          inet addr:192.168.0.1  Bcast:192.168.0.255  Mask:255.255.255.0
          inet6 addr: fe80::2e0:4cff:fe20:ebc3/64 Scope:Link
          UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1
          RX packets:169 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:12 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000
          RX bytes:27751 (27.1 KiB)  TX bytes:1566 (1.5 KiB)
          Interrupt:5 Base address:0xd000

eth1 receives it's dhcp fine and I can access the Internet, e-mail, etc
but I can't use this PC as my firewall yet as it the dhcp is somehow
blocked.  PC's connected to it recognize that there is a network but no
actual communication occurs.

I tried Googling with no success and haven't seen any similar messages
on the list. Any ideas on how I can get this working?
